Visual Pioneering Artist

Job Description

Eyeline Studios is seeking a visual thinker who operates at the intersection of cinematography, concept art, and storytelling through advanced visual technologies. This is a role for someone who can act as a director of photography without a physical camera, a matte painter without a brush, and a worldbuilder fluent in tools that shape imagery at scale.
You'll craft frame-perfect scenes, design cinematic sequences, and bring concepts to life across narrative, experimental, and exploratory formats. Working with both open-source and in-house-developed toolsets, you'll research, experiment, and refine visuals in alignment with creative direction while delivering compelling outcomes that push the boundaries of visual storytelling. This role is a creative and technical launchpad that empowers filmmakers to rapidly visualize, iterate, and collaborate on cinematic ideas their way.

Key Responsibilities
• Cinematic Design & Composition: Design, compose, and deliver striking still and motion visuals that balance narrative clarity, emotional depth, and aesthetic precision
• Visual Ownership: Own the visual tone of scenes, environments, and sequences, including lighting design, lens language, spatial composition, and atmosphere
• Workflow Construction: Construct advanced visual workflows for concept exploration, worldbuilding, and cinematic ideation, spanning single-frame images and extended sequences
• Look Development: Direct look development for experimental formats, short-form content, or pitch materials, translating raw ideas or scripts into compelling frame-based narratives
• Creative Technology Implementation: Collaborate across creative teams to improve image generations and explore new visual techniques for areas like creature movement studies and photoreal shot design
• Project Visualization: Contribute to projects that range from high-concept design work to frame-accurate final pixel and cinematic storytelling
Qualifications
• 3+ years of experience in Film Production, VFX, Game Cinematics, or Feature Animation, with experience in roles like Concept Artist, Production Designer, Art Director, Cinematographer or DMP/Environment Generalist
• Deep understanding of cinematic language (lighting, lenses, framing, pacing, color theory) with an instinct for storytelling through composition
• Proven ability to create photorealistic visual worlds at a high fidelity and deliver a portfolio showcasing command of light, atmosphere, and narrative mood
• 1+ year of experience utilizing machine learning techniques (neural network-generated imaging) to innovate artistic designs and enhance visual assets
• Strong hands-on knowledge of the advanced image creation ecosystem (e.g., ComfyUI, InvokeAI, etc.) and specific techniques like video to video re-styling with a keyframe reference
• Comprehensive understanding of shaping and refining prompt engineering within ML frameworks to express artistic intent and visual storytelling
• Fluency with tools for direct image/video creation outside traditional CG workflows and the ability to work solo on short-turnaround creative challenges
• Strong sense of visual storytelling with ability to articulate and elevate visual intent from concept through final pixel
• Experience with real-time tools, projection workflows, or creative scripting
• Built or executed full workflows using visual node-based systems (e.g., ComfyUI) in a production setting
• Hands-on experience training visual style modules (fine-tuning, dataset preparation) and integrating them into workflows
• Proven ability to explore and compare output fidelity across different visual modeling systems (e.g., SDXL vs. Flux, Qwen Edit vs. Nano Banana, etc.) or enhancement tools
• Experience incorporating large language models (LLMs) into creative pipelines for writing, sequencing, or idea structuring
